    Bayrock Group: New York’s Real Estate Giant is Growing

    In 2008, Trump SoHo was opened by Bayrock Group with the Trump Organization (and the Sapir Organization). Bayrock Group was founded in Kazakhstan in 1980.

    Bayrock Group, a luxury real estate developer in the United States, has a long history that goes all the way to 2001, the year the company was established. It all began on the other end of the planet.

    Tevfik who was born in Soviet Kazakhstan to a Turkish family, established the Bayrock Group.

    Prior to becoming a member of the Soviet Ministry of Commerce and Trade, Tevfik Ariff earned a degree from the Moscow Trade and Economic Institute in International Relations.

    He was a minister for 17 years, and later quit to establish his own business. Tevfik Arif Bayrock Tevfik Arif was involved in development of luxury real estate, food, exports and imports among others.

    Tevfik Arif Tevfik’s diverse businesses helped him to attract a large number of foreign partners. His connections led him to Turkey in 1993, where he was among the key people behind Turkey’s famed all-inclusive hotels.

    He, for example, founded the Labada Hotel in Antalya before he embarked on his next venture across the Atlantic several years later.

    Bayrock Group is becoming more ambitious

    Tevfik Amir came into America in 2001 in search of new business opportunities as well as to be closer with his American family.

    http://www.latinpost.com/articles/154499/20220316/what-draws-trump-and-bayrock-group-s-tevfik-arif-to-turkey.htm After he moved to the United States, he started the development company for luxury real estate Bayrock Group in New York City.

    Bayrock Group started with small-to medium-sized projects in New York. For instance, the Bayrock Group revamped the design of Loehmann’s Seaport Plaza at Sheepshead in Brooklyn.

    Bayrock Group was an excellent beginning. It allowed Tevfik Arif more determination. He longed for bigger projects and decided to change the company’s strategy to concentrate on this.

    Bayrock Group moved its New York City office to Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue to coincide with the change in strategy.

    The move yielded significantly more than the other location, as it got the business within the vicinity of the Trump Organization. The Trump Organization was home to the world-famous family organization.

    Trump SoHo finally takes shape

    Bayrock Group & Trump Organization have a common vision for high-end real estate developments. So, they came together to form a partnership.

    Tevfik Arif Bayrock Group was already working on another project for Spring Street in Manhattan’s SoHo quarter, in conjunction with the Sapir Organization.

    Tevfik Alif was aware that adding the Trump Organization to the project would add brand awareness to the building which Bayrock Group lacked and that the Sapir Organization was lacking.

    Arif signed an agreement that provided the Trump Organization 18% equity in this building , in exchange for the Trump brand being used to promote its name.

    The deal was ratified by Bayrock Group (the Trump Organization) as well as the Sapir Organization (the Sapir Organization).

    After two years of construction the building was completed to be inaugurated.

    Tevfik Arif Doyen Handel Architects was tasked to create the building. The architectural firm previously developed the famous National September 11th Memorial & Museum (New York City) and the Ritz Carlton Washington Hotel (D.C.).

    Bayrock Group commissioned Rockwell Group as their interior designer.

    International experience is also accessible from countries such as Spain, Mexico, and Indonesia.

    Tevfik Arif Bayrock Bayrock Group, Trump Organization expand their collaboration

    The Trump Organization and the Bayrock Group wanted to extend their relationship after the opening of Trump SoHo.

    Their dream was to create buildings that were located in Arizona and Florida that looked like Trump SoHo. Trump Organization was also granted the same license conditions and left with an equity of 18% in the building. This would permit Trump to be named as part of the building’s name.

    Despite the hopes and plans of the firms however, the structures couldn’t be built due the global economic crisis of 2008.

    The American real estate market was particularly affected by the recession, which forced Bayrock Group to pull out and Trump Organization to rescind their plans.

    The financial crisis resulted in changing the American real property market to the extent that Tevfik Arif opted to end his United States undertakings. He decided to return to Europe and Central Asia.

    He continued his job in the private sector.

    Tevfik arif has left the majority of Bayrock Group’s daily tasks. However, he is still a respected consultant to Bayrock Group.

    Bayrock Group has not been involved in any American real estate developments in the last few months, but when it was operating, the firm invested real estate assets that amounted to $2.5 million in the United States.
